Javier Bardem movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Denis Villeneuve
S-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. Villeneuve's second Dune. The IMAX sequences and desert photography are demo material.
Warner Bros. · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Joseph Kosinski
Racing legend Sonny Hayes is coaxed out of retirement to lead a struggling Formula 1 team—and mentor a young hotshot driver—while chasing one more chance at glory.
dir. Joel Coen, Ethan Coen
S-Tier Criterion 4K. The Coens' best film by popular vote, and the 4K announcement generated enormous excitement. The scan comes in at 88.7 GB, which is enormous. Someone spotted a crew member hiding in the bushes during the river scene, which started a whole thing. People are waiting on There Will Be Blood and Assassination of Jesse James to complete the 2007 western trio.
Criterion Collection · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Darren Aronofsky
Criterion flash sale pickups are pushing this one back into conversations. The A-Tier Paramount disc benefits from HDR more than most because the lighting design carries most of the tension. Aronofsky's biblical allegory disguised as a home invasion film, and the 4K presentation makes both halves hit harder.
Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Joachim Rønning, Espen Sandberg
A-Tier Disney 4K. Fifth Pirates film with a 3.0 overall score, which is rough. No relevant collector discussion beyond a steelbook listing.
Walt Disney Studios · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Sam Mendes
Collector Instagram is full of this one right now. The 4K transfer was already well-regarded and the steelbook packaging turns up in almost every Bond collection photo.
MGM · 4K + Blu-ray
